Somewhat similar to Tipping the Velvet but with much less humor and whimsey. This made for television 'mini-series' has such a gloomy aura about it that it's difficult to see any of the characters in a favorable light. Beyond a few bright moments, Fingersmith seem...( read more)
More lesbo lovin after we tip the velvet - how can I refuse? Excellent adaptation indeed.
How could ANYONE sit with a straight face with a producer and name a movie about lesbian love "Fingersmith?" This has GOT to be a joke and this pun HAD to be intended. You can't make this crap up. LOL!!!!
The romance is sweet and convincing, but the editing and direction are so clumsy and artless it loses almost all of its spark. The plot also spends way too much time and energy on uninteresting elements. A shame, although Hawkins is excellent as always.
Nowhere near of Tipping the Velvet but pretty good anyway. Strong performances carried it along.
This one right here made me cry, any movie capable of doing that is good. The acting, suspense, and the love between the two are marvelous.
No recent reviews.
Fingersmith is such a wonderful movie and the book is likewise amazing and addicting! The story is just beautiful, the acting was incredible, the dialogue and everything was AWESOME! I can never get bored of watching fingersmith or of reading the book. Sarah Waters is spectacular for making up such a sensitive story and I LOVE Elaince Cassidy and Sally Hawkins!!! <33
